As for the multimedia package, cars equipt with this package was released later than the base cars. You should see more cars equipt with the multimedia package once the dealerships move out the base models and order the later released cars. Since most dealers have limited supply of cars with the multimedia package, you might not be able to get a good deal on them.
I live in Northern California and I am also looking for a C350. May I ask which dealer you went with that gave you close to invoice? If you can give me the name of the person and his contact info., that would be even better. Really appreciate your help. Thanks!

I live in Northern California and I am also looking for a C350. May I ask which dealership you went with that offered you $200 over invoice? If you can tell me the name of the person that you worked with, that would be even better. Really appreciate your help here.
Thanks,

I don't think I'm allowed to post the sales person's name here. Best of luck.
I offered $39K OTD, which was eventually accepted. I am posting this to help others. So if I got ripped, feel free to reply. If I did ok, please say so.
C300 Luxury, (PO1)Premium 1 package, (320) Multimedia Package, 7.75% tax rate. I specifically said I did not want the iPod Integration Kit.
(Supposedly there are only 4 like this on the west coast, so it's being shipped from Orange County, or LA).
For the price you got for 250 over inv, does this include the $500 IRG or you were able to ask them to waive this fees?
Thanks,

C300 Lux; Silver metalic paint (no other options; 6% sales tax). We think this is a reasonable offer but we'll know more on Friday. The car will be ordered. Any advice of what to look for in this type of transaction? Thanks.
I'm very interested in purchasing a new C350 but have some questions that I'm hoping some of you with experience could help me with.
I'm currently leasing a 2006 Nissan Maxima SL - started Feb 2006 - end Feb 2009.
'06 Maxima SL
MSRP = $34,195
Cap Cost = $29000 (Invoice + $500)
Lease Terms = 36 months/15K miles
Residual = 58%
Money Factor = .00176
Cash Down = $2000
Pre tax monthly payment = $359
After tax (9.1%) monthly payment = $392
Would it be a smart move to break the lease to buy the new C-Class? So far the best I've found has been around 41 to 42K fully loaded. (premium and multimedia package)
In the long run would this be a smart move?
If anyone has any input I would greatly appreciate it!

I purchased a C300 Luxury Sedan with the Premium I package and 7-Speed Automatic transmission yesterday from a dealship in Albuquerque, N.M. I narrowed my vehicles to the MB or the Cadillac CTS, and the MB won hands down. MSRP for vehicle was $35,075. (sticker) and the dealership discounted the vehicle $1,500. although they said they are selling every car that is delivered in a couple of days. The vehicle I bought was the only one in stock and had been delivered yesterday morning! Seems like the C300 Luxury and Sport trims are "selling like hot cakes." I was happy to purchase at the price quoted.
I am thinking to get exactly the same as yours.. whats the OTD you paid?
I was told that was a good deal (by friends), but i am still not sure... they are pushing me to lease.
the only flaw i hear in the multimedia is that benz doesnt provide navigation updates. as such, if you plan on keeping the car for a while then your nav may get outdated.
MSRP 41,685 for 40,000 is a good deal, where is your dealer?
It's in NJ. Where are you?
thanks!
That's a few hundreds over invoice, anyone in NYC or nearby wants the dealer info please email me wc@nyc.rr.com
I didn't expect to get as low as that!!
there's a $300-$500 IRG participation fee that's in the dealer's true invoice. I confirmed this by viewing the true invoice when I purchased mine. It's a marketing fee the dealers pay MB. It varies by by region w/CA having the highest IRG fees. It was $500 at the dealer I purchased from in the bay area. Edmund's invoice only reflects the destination charge and not the IRG participation as that can vary by region, vehicle, etc.
Anyone has any idea what MB dealer charges for extended warranty? Any other dealer offers I should seriously consider?
In bygone days, the place to start was the dealership in Chico, CA...they had the lowest prices on the warranty. Don't know if that's still true...
In any case, remember you can buy it from ANY authorized dealer in the nation...it has an MSRP just like the car, and will be discounted even more.
"The State of California has passed legislation that prohibits quoting or selling extended service contracts (extended warranties) to California residents by anyone other than the selling automobile dealer. In order to comply with this legislation of your state, we are unable to provide price quotes or offer to sell extended service contracts to California residents".
Anyone with MB dealer extended warranty quotes will be appreicated.

We told the man that our budget was $34,500 OTD. He then worked the deal backwards and there were several discounts, including $1,000 loyalty discount. We started some time ago with the EDP (Euro Delivery Plan) and then, when the difference between EDP and local purchase became less and less, we decided not to bother with the EDP (we are going to Europe anyway).
Go to www.mbusa.com and try to build one without any options except the metalic paint. This is a stripped-down C300 Lux. It would be $700 less if we got white but the car looks better (to us) in silver. There was nothing on the lot for less than 36,000 as ALL cars had "Packages" and/ or add-ons. I hope this helps.
The dealer is in Clearwater, FL.

We were told (when we signed the papers) that our car will arrive late December or early January.
I have received extended warranty quotes from various dealers for other cars in California this year.
thanks in advance.
I am in the market for C300 in NJ. Still haven't decided btwn IS 250 and C300 but almost leaning toward C300. Would you mind sharing dealership info? Please email me at easynone@gmail.com. Thank you.
Hope it helps.
